Rollie Fingers’ mustache is the definitive mustache for the sport of baseball. Like Lanny McDonald’s mustache in hockey, or Hulk Hogan’s in pro wrestling, Fingers’ mustache is one of a kind. In the case of Fingers, McDonald or Hogan, you don’t even need to see the rest of the player’s face… just the upper lip and all of its magic and manliness.

Fingers is often regarded as the player who changed the role – and status – of the relief pitcher. He is best remembered for his days with the three-peating Oakland A’s of the early 1970’s, but is also a pretty big deal in Milwaukee (as seen on his 1985 Topps card), where the Brewers also retired his number. The second reliever ever elected to the Hall of Fame, Fingers could have achieved such an honour based on mustache alone.
